A combination of a printing head supporting carriage in a printer, and an ink ribbon cassette adapted for mounting on the carriage at an angle thereto and having a recess in which a printing head can be positioned. The cassette has at least one positioning pin at its bottom. A resilient lever is provided on the peripheral surface of the cassette which is substantially perpendicular to the bottom thereof. The lever has a lower end secured to the peripheral surface and a free upper end. The carriage has at its top a first inclined surface adapted to support the bottom of the cassette thereon, and having a hole for receiving the pin of the cassette therein. The carriage also has at its top a second inclined surface which is substantially perpendicular to the first inclined surface, and adapted to support the peripheral surface of the cassette thereon.
